Philip Glass's Life as an East Village Voice -
“My 10-year-old, who likes to make little videos on his laptop, wanted some music for one and said, ‘Dad, can I go on the Internet and get your music?’” Glass says. “And I said, ‘Sure you can.’ He came back about 20 minutes later and said, ‘Dad, I just downloaded your whole catalog.’ He’s 10 years old. He’s 10 years old! “I said: ‘Really? What did that cost you?’ He said, ‘It’s free!’ And what can I say? That conversation is never going to happen—about what we’re going to do about it already—because it already happened.

The sOccket is a kinetic energy capture battery in the form of a ultra-durable soccer ball that can withstand the rough terrain of resource-poor nations that traditional soccer balls can’t. Then, at the end of the day, devices such as LED lamps can be plugged into the ball.
By making problem-solving fun, and teaching people about social innovation, the sOccket movement inspires young and old alike to get involved and improve the world.
sOcckets are currently distributed with the help of sponsors–both corporate and philanthropic–interested in helping us share the sOccket passion around the world.
